I guess the proofreader missed this one. "Too much ice cream"?! Like there is such a thing. 🤣

My mum used to say I ate too much ice cream.
I was, and still am, addicted to 'too much' choc chip orange ice cream.

Maybe they think there is such a thing as too much ice cream and that's what they want. I'd take too much ice cream! LOL!

I think the cartoonist was intentional. It's a play on words from the 1950's.

Isn't it "May we have" when asking for permission.

I'm not. In fact, I've always considered grammar to be the weakest part of my communication skills. As such, I attempt to improve these skills as opportunity provides itself. That was the case with this post. Thanks for helping me.
